I agree.
There are some very stupid people here and it’s not made-up entirely of the trolls or new members who believe in a ton of bullshit.
Fine, I’ll go. sniff
Oh, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
Oh no, not you - you’re our special special person. 
Not for the people downstream.
Buh-buh-buh-baby…
(I remember at the time thinking “Is Bachman-Turner Overweight making fun of stutterers?”)
No, just that he was a marmalade-filled fried pastry, or something.
Worse yet, racist truthers. Racist truther jelly doughnuts.
No, seriously, this is the job. This is the Straight Dope. People come looking for truth, or looking to speak what they think is truth. Some get banged by enough clue-sticks they change some of their views. Some are more stubborn. Just like the rest of the world.
How boring it would be with no one new to come in out of our educated, perceived-as-enlightened set of preconceptions about objective reality! With no one to come in and ask where all the blue goes when the sun sets, or claim that white people are a different species!
Stupidity, and bad news.
No, they’re Canadian so they’re probably just shivering.
Meh, I’m just comfortably numb to them now.
Clearly you didn’t get the memo -everyone is blaming Bush for everything now.
Well what an interesting day on the SDMB, I was told I was a disgrace by a Neo-Nazi, learned what 14/88 means and have been playing in two threads of idiots one here and a GD. What the hell happened? Is there something in the water? Gotta take a nap kozmik should be back soon

Why do you hate America?
“Don’t feed the troll” is a bit passé, don’t you think? That just lowers the trolling bar. Better to mess with them until they get banned.
I think the name “The Straight Dope” is what attracts the crazies. They seem to misinterpret it as the real truth that the Powers That Be (and/or Liberal Media) don’t want you to know.
I blame Obama for that.
Makes me curious. Have we ever gotten a LGBT crazy who thought the board name was a deliberate reference to gender preference and went all Kozmik on it?
Gah, this band just has no ability to realize how awful they are.
I blame the Illuminati.
Jews did 9/11?
They’re humming.
Well using “straight” as a synonym for truthful is heteronormative… [/mister nyx]
